Gender breakthrough?

Stabroek Business: I am assuming that you are now Head of the Essequibo Chamber after having been in business for some time. Can you tell me something about your business background?

President ECCI: I basically have no business background. I became a member of the Chamber after being a confidential secretary to Mr Alfro Alfonso. I was intrigued by the Chamber and its role. I was present when the Chamber had its first Annual General Meeting. Afterwards I held the position of Secretary for several years. The first AGM was held in 2000.

 My passion is mostly volunteering and I found that I was able to put that passion to use in the Chamber of Commerce. Apart from working in the private sector as a secretary and an accountant, I also work as a medical transcriptionist with Handover Services in the United States of America.
